The police knew that the victims were working for Bugs Moran. The crime was not resolved so they didn't know who the other party was. When people depend on the underground money, these things happens. The victims were: John May, Adam Heyer, Albert Kachellek, Albert Weinshenker, Peter Gusenburg, Frank Gusenburg and Reinhart Schwimmer. People think that because chief gangster Al Capone sought to consolidate control by eliminating his rivals in the illegal trades of bootlegging, gambling and prostitution. From 1924 to 1930, the city of Chicago gained a widespread reputation for lawlessness and violence. One February evening in North Chicago, seven well-dressed men were found riddled with bullets inside the S.M.C Cartage Co. garage. They had been lined up against a wall, with their backs to their executioners and shot to death. These people were working for "Bugs" Moran. During the height of prohibition and the never-ending competition between gangster rivals Al "Scarface" Capone and George "Bugs" Moran, bloody warfare was nothing new to the authorities of Chicago. Nobody could think someone from some other state could be involved. Al was never charged or proven mainly because he was not there. There is another theory nobody was afraid to talk about at that time. The theory holds that Enoch Lewis "Nucky" Johnson from New Jersey was involved in the planning of the massacre.
